ICYMI! 🚨

And we continue with more on Youth Unemployment and Underemployment!

A THIRD (yes, THIRD!) public hearing was held by the JSC on Social Services and Public Administration on Youth Umemployment and Underemployment and this one was huge! We got to hear directly, not only from the tertiary education institutions, but also our youths themselves through various youth organizations.

Here are some quick highlights but just remember, you can also rewatch the entire public hearing on the Parliament's Youtube Channel ParlView.
